Hi, I am P Venkata Rajesh . A lot of people call me PVR.
I am an IIM Grad turned Wedding and Travel Photographer.
Photography is my passion. I was inspired by images from Boston Big Picture, National Geographic and Magnum. The picturesque campus of IIM Kozhikode and the kampus culture served as huge motivation for photography. I was also the co-ordinator of the Tripod, Phtoography Club of IIM Kozhikode for the year 2010-11 where in we created a strong photography culture at the campus, conducted sessions and held competitions and finally held an exhibition to showcase student work. After dabbling for more than 4 years in photography, I jumped into photography fulltime in Apr 2013.
I have learnt from some top notch Indian wedding photographers like Sephi Bergerson and Mahesh Shantaram. My style of photography is fresh , vivid and dramatic. I have a unique way of shooting the wedding the from the perspective of emotions. Emotions and composition are all that matter to me.
